Urban gardening:







How do we fit in growing of our own veggies when life is so busy? My system is the raised garden using the square foot garden system as developed by Mel Bartholomew http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_foot_gardening.

This system can be customized to any requirement. After the initial purchase and set up of the garden it usually takes only a few minutes a day. It is important to try to visit you garden daily as if you only weekend garden it will take extra time. Weeding and watering a 4’ x 4’ garden will take less that 5 minutes a day. You will be surprised on how much produce can be grown in just 16 square feet. I have been using this system since th e 70’s.
